$T$-duality on nilmanifolds

Differential Geometry 2018-07-04 v5

Abstract

We study generalized complex structures and TT-duality (in the sense of Bouwknegt, Evslin, Hannabuss and Mathai) on Lie algebras and construct the corresponding Cavalcanti and Gualtieri map. Such a construction is called "Infinitesimal TT-duality". As an application we deal with the problem of finding symplectic structures on 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras. We also give a criteria for the intregability of the infinitesimal TT-duality of Lie algebras to topological TT-duality of the associated nilmanifolds.
